If you are looking for it, we have been waiting for you.
The alligator case alone is often traded for about 100,000 yen if it is in good condition, making it a super maniac item. It's a cheap thing made of paper, but the atmosphere it has is wonderful. Unfortunately, the back is roughly cut.
Gibson Melody Maker 1961. Moreover, it comes with the very popular alligator case.
Pegs, bridges, strap pins, and even the lighting are all fully original.
Strap pins are fragile because they are plastic, and it is very valuable that the original remains of a similar age.
It seems that this model of the student model at that time was sold as a low-priced version. However, at the time"Good Trees"I heard that because there was an abundance of wood, the superiority of the model did not use different wood. Instead, cheap lighting, pegs, strap pins, etc., including pickups, are used.But now it tastes great.
As a long time passes, the parts are often changed.This kind of complete original is very valuable.
[About the guitar body]
The body and neck are of very high qualityHonduran mahogany, and what a fingerboard is jacaranda.
If you look closely at this black-black jacaranda, you can enjoy the bewitching grain.
The raw sound is wonderful because the material is good. The neck is straight and the truss rod is also working fine. Both the nut and the fret are original, but slightly reduced. However, you can play normally without being scared. There are also many dents on the back of the neck. There are no cracks or cracks at all. Touch-up makes it slippery and easy. The electrical connection is still a cheap sound, but that's the beauty of this guitar. If you don't like it, it's a common single size, so you might want to replace it. However, please do not let go of the original. It is of high value. Although it is not shown in the photo, the pickguard is removed and the contents are also checked. All are original and there is no difference. [About the Alligator Case]The alligator case alone is often traded for about 100,000 yen if it is in good condition, making it a super maniac item. It's a cheap thing made of paper, but the atmosphere it has is wonderful. Unfortunately, the back is roughly cut.
However, since you can't see the inside and it doesn't fall off, it functions as a case and can be carried around. The handle part may have been broken before, but there are repair marks. It is fitted with hot wires, welded, and filed, so it does not hurt to touch. I put a little effort into it, but it is completely unfazed, and it can be said that it is a professional repair. Also, there are often no fasteners, but this one has three firmly attached. A dozen years ago, it was just a cheap guitar, but its value has exploded due to factors such as the scarcity of materials and the depreciation of the yen.
It is now a product with high historical value. Due to the high price, it is also possible to try it out. (Sumida-ku, Tokyo)
